Rolled Roses!

Hello everyone, time for another Jay Gee's Nook creation and this time I had a little fun with using the MFT die Mini Rolled Roses...these are super fun to create with, it did take a few goes and well this card was my first attempt at creating with them.

I used Kraft card stock, trimmed to size and stamped the Magical Background stamp over the top with Versamark ink, sewing around the edge and adhering to a trimmed white card. I stamped a sentiment in the bottom right hand corner and moved onto making the rolled roses out of two different kinds of felt. Once I was happy with the rolled roses, I adhered these to the card, adding some twine behind them and finishing the card off by adding a scattering of pearls.

A pretty basic card and a design that you could use to create card sets with..

I hope that you have all had a chance to check out the latest challenge...super fun and pretty open to anything Christmas, so be sure to jump on over and check it out HERE.

I am off to check out what the DT gals have created and then I must get a couple of jobs done before Roly and I head off to pick up my man...I loose sole remote control as of tonight..LOL.

I hope that you all enjoy the rest of your weekend...

Hugs

Hi Joy,
Another beautiful card! You have a knack of making very simple elements do the trick! (I guess that is your "less is more" philosophy at work!) Love it and love the rolled roses in felt!
